This $511,527 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) aims to investigate the developmental trajectory of cerebral lateralization for language and visual-spatial abilities in children aged 5 to 11. The research team at The Johns Hopkins University will use behavioral testing and functional brain imaging to examine how brain activation patterns change over...
This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports research to understand how children and adults learn language and visual patterns, with a focus on the process of memory consolidation. The $230,454 award to Georgetown University will fund studies examining when and how consolidation occurs, what types of input undergo consolidation, and what activities can enhance or disrupt these consolidation...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports an early career postdoctoral research fellowship examining how children acquire vocabulary related to spatial relations. The research, conducted under the sponsorship of Dr. John Trueswell at the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Barbara Landau at Johns Hopkins University, will investigate how typically developing children learn the meanings of spatial terms...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $250,000 to study the neural bases of bilingual language production. The project aims to characterize how the brain processes multiple languages with different grammatical rules. Through a series of magnetoencephalography experiments, the researchers will examine brain responses as bilingual participants produce words requiring morphological changes...
The National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $258,811 Project Grant to the California State University, East Bay Foundation, Inc. to support the study of neuroplasticity of language and cognitive processes in bilingualism and multilingualism. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the award will provide funding from September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2024 for the acquisition of electroencephalography...
The National Science Foundation SBE Office of Multidisciplinary Activities awarded a $217,800 two-year Project Grant to researchers at Berkeley, California to study the contributions of the environment and social interaction to language emergence. The grant is part of the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which supports basic research and education in these fields. Under the award, the researchers will investigate how environmental and social factors shape...
The National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $500,000 Project Grant to Boston Children's Hospital to support research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: NCS-FO: STUDYING LANGUAGE IN THE BRAIN IN THE MODERN MACHINE LEARNING ERA" from September 15, 2021 through August 31, 2025. This award will fund research into studying language acquisition and processing in the brain using modern machine learning techniques, advancing the NSF's STEM Education...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $466,640 to The Trustees of Princeton University to measure how visual space is represented in the parietal and cerebellar cortex, and how this representation matures from childhood to adulthood. The goal is to understand how these developing brain structures support a child's improving ability to control attention across visual space during tasks like...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $450,000 Project Grant to the University of Massachusetts (UMass) under the NSF Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program. The grant, effective September 1, 2023 through August 31, 2026, will fund research on the cognitive mechanisms supporting the production of sentences involving recursion and displacement across different languages. The project aims to use structural priming...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences awarded a $663,423 Project Grant to the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) through the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). This three-year grant supports research to examine the cognitive processes that enable bilingual speakers to switch between their dominant and non-dominant languages when producing and comprehending language. The study will conduct behavioral experiments...
